anyone else here watch rugby or the all blacks.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.

Apparently France made good use of the driving maul? Didn't see the game so can't be sure, is this true?
Clever of France because it keeps the All Blacks out of open play, which is where they are strong.

I'm watching the Lions game right now. The South Africa test series should be interesting.

yea the french forwards were playing really good creating alot of turnovers.

Yes the lions games verse south africa should be good although i think south africa will be to strong for them.

I'm not sure SA will be too strong, although they might be too cohesive.

In terms of talent the Lions are very strong, but these guys don't play with each other all the time so the team unity isn't always there. We will find out tomorrow!

I've stopped watching the All Blacks until Luke McAlister goes away. The fact he's back in the team is a joke, he was rubbish before he left and never deserved to be brought back into the team. Serves Henry right losing to France after that debacle.

I really don't see good things in the future for NZ rugby. Our depth is terrible right now, McCaw, Carter and Williams get hurt and we end up with a team full of nobodies and guys who should never get anywhere near an All Blacks jersey. C'mon, Cory Jane starting on the Wing? You gotta be kidding me.

    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
    • Wordle 1,035 3/6 ⬜🟨🟨🟩⬜ 🟨🟨🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Just lipped out that Eagle putt, easy tab-in Birdie
    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
    • Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
